[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1214823, member: 46727"] My understanding is that the firmware password bypass trick no longer works on the 2011 models. You should have kept your 2011 model so we could have you confirm that. :) It was reported in MacWorld or maybe it was MacLife?.. anyway, it seems now if you forget or lose your EFI set password, only an authorized Apple store genius or dealer/technician will be able to reset it.
